Shankara Goud M yes it's my own experience only. There are lot of nutrient interactions is there with diseases. In lemon copper nutrient is most important one for defense mechanism against canker disease. Each and every micro nutrients deficiency connected with several diseases. If proper management of micronutrient in our plant reduces disease infection. If you are applying copper oxy chloride copper presents in this chemical act as nutrient. Disease occurred in any plants only due to the any nutrient deficiency. We all should know this slogan "DISEASE ARE NOT A FUNGICIDE DEFICIENCY" If you need more details contact 9944460780
